Army Special RulesThe Acts of Faith systemAt the start of your Movement phases you generate D6 Faith Points. Any Faith Points that are unused at the end of YOUR turn are lost.
Tests of FaithAn Act of Faith can be attempted immediately before a Sisters of Battle unit acts during a phase; e.g. before the unit Moves, Shoots (or runs) or Assaults.
Each attempt costs 1 Faith Point, if test if failed the point is lost.
To attempt an Act of Faith, select the unit and reduce your Faith Points by 1, then roll a D6 and add the following:
+1 if the unit is led by a Superior (Sister, Celestian, Dominion or Seraphim) or Mistress of Repentance.
+1 if the unit has been joined by a Canoness, Confessor, Saint Celestine, Uriah Jacobus or Arch-Confessor Kyrinov
+1 if the unit has taken at least 1 casualty
All modifiers are cumulative (so with 1 Independent Character in a unit with a Superior that has taken at least 1 casualty only needs a 2+ to be successful)
If the total is equal to or greater than 5 the Act of Faith is successful, the unit immediately gains a bonus and/or special rules until the end of the phase.
Independent Characters and Acts of FaithIndependent Characters that have the Acts of Faith rule benefit from any bonuses received by the unit they are with when an Act of Faith is used, likewise the unit receives any bonuses from the Independent Character's Acts of Faith when they are successful. Note you still have to perform 2 different Tests of Faith if you want to use both the Independent Character's and the units Act of Faith.
Shield of FaithModels with the Shield of Faith special rule have a 6+ invulnerable save.

WargearBlessed BannerAny Sisters of Battle unit within 12" of the Banner Bearer re-rolls failed Morale and Pinning tests. In addition, while the Banner Bearer is still alive, the Sororitas Command Squad counts as having scored one extra wound in close combat for the purposes of calculating the assault result.
ChainswordChainswords are close combat weapons, as described in the Assault Phase chapter of the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook.
Chirurgeon's ToolsImplements of both torture and salvation, the Chirurgeon's Tools can restore the fallen so that they might fight once more. As long as the Sister Hospitaler is alive, her unit has the Feel No Pain special rule.
Combi-WeaponA model armed with a combi-weapon (combi-meltagun, combi-plasma gun or combi-flamer) can choose to fire either the bolter or the secondary weapon, each with the profile listed elsewhere in this section. The bolter can be fired every turn, but the secondary weapon can only be fired once per battle (a combi-plasma gun can, of course, rapid fire). You cannot fire both weapons in the same turn
Condemnor BoltgunThe condemnor boltgun is a highly specialised combi-weapon used almost exclusively by the operatives of the Ecclesiarchy and combines a boltgun with a single-shot crossbow armature. Though archaic-seeming, the crossbowfires a silver stake engraved with sigils of disruption that destabilise a psyker's connection with the Warp. A direct hit from the crossbow will therefore not only deal a severe wound to a psyker, it will also send his power spiralling out of control to consume its user. The condemnor boltgun follows all the rules for combi-weapons given above - it comprises a boltgun and a stake-crossbow. The stake-crossbow can be fired once per game and has the following profile:
Range | Strength | AP | Type |
24" | 5 | - | Assault 1, Psi-shock** |
**Any psyker that takes an unsaved wound from the stake-crossbow shot suffers the Perils of the Warp in addition to any other effects.EvisceratorAn Eviscerator is a grotesquely large double-handed chainsword. Eviscerators follow all the rules for power fists, and roll an additional D6 for armour penetration.
Laud HailerProclaiming the power of the Emperor in heavenly tones, Laud Hailers bolster the spirits of the faithful. When any Sisters of Battle unit within 12" of a model with a Laud Hailer successfully makes an Act of Faith, roll a D6 straight away. On a 6, your army immediately gains a single Faith Point.
Neural WhipsNeural whips follow the rules for power weapons. In addition, Hits caused by a neural whip against non-vehicle units strike at Strength 8 and roll To Wound against the opponent's unmodified Leadership characteristic instead of their Toughness.
RosariusA Rosarius is a gorget or amulet incorporating a force field, worn by members of the Ecclesiarchy to protect them from physical and spiritual harm. A Rosarius confers a 4+ invulnerable save.
Simulacrum ImperialisThese holy symbols of the Ecclesiarchy were once carried by one of the Imperium's many saints, or may even be wrought from their bones. A unit with a Simulacrum Imperialis re-rolls failed Acts of Faith tests.
